Non ball knowers everywhere you look.

He doesn’t make $50M per until after next season by the way where he will undoubtedly be a better player.

He looked great last night. Absolute game changing sky scraper. You have to think twice about going in when he’s patrolling the paint

God forbid we run a 1-3-1 defense with him and bam on the court together with Bam at the top and Ware in the paint. Maybe it would stop all the literal blow bys on the perimeter we see from our perimeter guys right now that literally blows up the entire defense lol

If Jimmy isn’t retained, FO ought to do the right thing and send Bam where he can maximize his talent

Read on Twitter


Despite the efficient start from Herro we have still struggled to play winning basketball when he is on the court for whatever reason. They need to find out why

If he were on the Wizards the forum would be busting a nut at the thought of trying to get him to Miami but I agree, free Bam and get him to a legit team that he can maximize and win with

I’m steadfast that we have to attach either JJJ or Jovic or both and get some win now help. We HAVE to make the playoffs this year and payout OKC. Then next year we can tank gracefully with our 2026 pick and able to trade 2029 and 2031. They can’t blow this.

If we pay out OKC we will have 2026, 2027 top 15 protected, 2028, 2029,2030, 2031. We can put 2029 and 2031 in play to trade in the near future. If we don’t payout OKC the down stream effect is brutal.

Send Jovic to remove protections and have 2027, 2029, and 2031 to trade :o

Heat doesn't need a trade to make the playoffs. Just need Butler to play. Can't afford to give up young talent.

At the end of the day the team is in hold until the Butler situation is finalized

Either trade him or say he’s not being traded, need that nonsense to work itself out sooner rather than later

While I agree that Bam isn’t going anywhere, this notion that Bam will be “freed” if he goes elsewhere is delusional, when our whole system has been built to cater to him, both to maximize his strengths and cover his weaknesses.

the only way the Heat are going to make moves to upgrade the edges is when Butler is traded or resigns. Until its resolved not unresolved. Not trading him and without a contract commitment, is unresolved. Wth is a public announcement gonna do if the two parties still non commital.

Bam needs to play with a pass first pg/ high level playmaker to be maximized

Jimmy is the closest thing Mia has to that and they have subpar chemistry together on offense

If Bam played with a Trey or Halliburton type, he’d be better off

You all do realize that Bam is the entire defense that is consistently top 10 right regardless of whatever bums we roll out next to him right? You all realize that Duncan and Herro thrive of Bams screens and that is when our offense is at its best right? This is Spo ball, this has always been Spo ball ever since he moved Bosh to center except now we just have a bunch of bums supporting our better players and the roster construction is fuxked. Bam
Is the Catalyst of an elite defense and the offense is better when he’s on the court (so is the team as a whole) this isn’t catering to Bams weaknesses, stop that fuxkin nonsense lol. BAMS MOST EFFICIENT SCORING SEASON CAME NEXT TO ANOTHER BIG!

And insfo I’m not even taking shots at you but this little take that’s been spouted off recently is plain garbage

The stupid mistakes that lead to turnovers, low percentage shots, or empty possessions is an epidemic amongst the rest of the team

Jimmy is old, and always nicked up, and reluctant to take over, but he's just night and day better than anyone else on this roster.
